For UNIX servers. You may need to set the
location of your Perl in the scripts. The default location set for Perl
in the script is:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

If this path is correct for your server,
you can skip to the next section.

The Perl location is the first
line of the following files:

admin.pl
admin-main.pl
diagnose.pl
EventHandler.pl
subs2.pl
subs3.pl

The line will look like this:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

If need
to run CGI extensions

If your server allows you to run Perl scripts with the pl
extension or you have other Perl scripts on your server that use the
extension pl, you can skip this step. Most server will allow pl
extensions.

If your server only allows CGI extensions to be ran, at this
point you must rename all the pl files to cgi
files.

Example:

admin.cgi
date.cgi
admin-main.cgi
EventHandler.cgi

Once you have renamed each of these files, you must edit the following
files and indicate in them that you are using the CGI extension:

admin.pl
admin-main.pl
diagnose.pl
EventHandler.pl
subs2.pl
subs3.pl

To edit them, open each files in a text editor. Find the line that says:

$cgiext = 'pl';

This line must be changed so that it reads:

$cgiext = 'cgi';

Once you have edited each file and saved them, you are ready to go using
the CGI extension.

Create
cgi-bin Directories and Upload CGI Files

Login to your ftp server.
This can be done using any FTP client such as CuteFTP.

Create a directory called EventHandler on your server in which the script will run. This
most likely will be located as a subdirectory of your cgi-bin
directory.

Example: http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/EventHandler

Using your ftp client, change to the directory which you created in
step 2 above.

On your server, created a directory
structure that mimics the structure of the CGI directory which
you unzipped. This means
you will create the following subdirectory:

data

This directory will be a subdirectory under the directory that
you created in step two. Examples:

http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/EventHandler/data

Upload all files from the CGI directory to their respective
directories on your server. Ignore the files under the NONCGI
directory for now.

When uploading the .pl files, you should be sure to use ASCII mode transfer.

Edit
your links.htm file

Open the file links.htm in an editor of your choice. This
is located in the NONCGI directory that was created when you
unzipped the files.

Upload all files from the NONCGI directory to their respective
directories on your server.

Set Permissions
for NT servers

If NT server, you will want to give the
IUSR_XXX (Internet Guest Account) account CHANGE (RWXD) (RWXD)
permissions for both main EventHandler directories. These are the
directories you created such as:

Only the files listed above require special permissions. All other
files can use the default permissions.

Note

Some UNIX servers will not allow 777
permissions to be set on the cgi EventHandler directory. If you follow the instructions completely
and you continue to get a server error while attempting to run the
scripts, set the permissions to 755 or 775 on the '/cgi-bin/EventHandler'
directory.

Edit your
template files

This step is not a must at this moment. It can
be done at any point down the line.

The templates files are used to make your script look as though it is part
of your site. For details on template files, click
here.

Note: When editing the template file, you must always include the $REPLACE
variable. This is to indicate where the script should insert the HTML
which is generates.

Open your
administration page in your browser

Point your browser to admin.htm
file which you uploaded. Most likely this is:

http://www.domain.com/EventHandler/admin.htm

where domain is your domain.

Set The
Main Script Variables

Click on the left hand side link labeled Script
Variables. This is under the Script Admin section.

For the first time login, you will leave the login username and
password blank.

Once you are in the Script Variables screen, you want to go through
of the fields and set each and every variable.

Make sure you set a new username
and password.

Once you have set all the fields properly, click on the button
labeled Modify Main Variables.

Begin
Creating Events

At this point you are ready to start creating
and administering your events.
